We love water and believe every child should learn to swim, foremost as a matter of safety, but also to open up a range of recreation and wellness activities. We provide small group lessons of all levels to kids ages 4-18 years, with a program designed to address all areas of interest.

Our Philosophy

We take a holistic approach, balancing specific skills instruction with passive learning activities. We strive for an imaginative and fun learning environment and believe it is essential to build a foundation of comfort in the water and ease of movement. We group students based on developmental and chronological age, in order to create a supportive and productive environment.

Small Group Lessons

We believe that a small group lesson format offers the best learning environment by combining individual attention with group interaction. We look at two main areas of development for group placement: motor skill (swimming skill) and chronological (age and maturity.) Motor skill development is our main criteria. Chronological development is important so that we group kids with their peers as much as possible. We try to keep the instructor/swimmer ratio to 1:4 or 1:5 in the Beginner through Intermediate groups.
